The app
The checklist, in your pocket, counting against your date
One
Start with where you are going
Pick a destination and the app lays out every route into it, named the way the government names it: 41 of them for the United States alone. No “tourist visa” catch-all, because no consulate issues one.
Two
One route, and the filings it is made of
A B1/B2 is not one form. It is a DS-160, a fee payment, an appointment booking and the documents you carry to the interview. The plan keeps each one’s count, and the total.
Three
Every document says what it must prove
Each requirement carries a line on what it is for, and each form names the official page it was read from, with the date it was read. That citation is the product.
Four
One tick, and the number answers
Getting hold of a document is one tap. The ring is arithmetic over the published list (4 of 16 is 25%), and it stays red until the list looks healthier.
Document completeness against the checklist the government publishes. Not a prediction, a likelihood or a score: nobody can tell you whether a visa will be granted. vdaDocs never sees the document itself: there is nothing to upload.
Five
And it counts back from your date
Reminders at 30, 14, 7 and 1 days before your appointment, scheduled on your phone. “41% ready, and your appointment is in nine days” is a sentence no checklist PDF can say.
Scheduled locally and never reaching a server.
Neither listing exists yet; these go to the waitlist, and we write once, on the day the app is downloadable.

The checklist, in your pocket, counting against your date
Everything on this site (every route, every document, every citation), with the one thing the site cannot do: it remembers which of them you already have.

We write once, on the day it is downloadable
It is not in the stores yet; that is the whole truth of it. Leave an address and we write to you once, on the day it is downloadable, not before and not about anything else.
Said plainly
Twenty-three languages ship, seventeen of them from the Indian block: Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Telugu, Tamil, Urdu, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Odia, Punjabi, Assamese, Nepali, Maithili, Konkani, Sindhi and Sanskrit. The requirements themselves are translated, not only the interface.
Every non-English translation is machine-assisted and no native speaker has reviewed the catalogues yet. The app says so on the language you pick, and so do we. A document list you cannot check is worth less than one you can.
The checklists work in a browser, today
Free and without an account to browse; the app adds the pocket, and reminders, on the day it ships.
